Saying goodbye to my PS2 / R.I.P.
« on: November 05, 2003, 05:14:43 PM »
Well the day finally came. I just picked up the GTA double pack for the Xbox. It looks better,and it sounds better on the Xbox.  Now I have no reason to use my PS2 anymore. It\'s been a good console to me over the past few years, but now that the only game I played on it is now out for the Xbox, the older , slower PS2 will be put to rest.
Xbox - live it......

You already finished it on your PS2, and decided to pick it up for your XBox anyway?

GTA 3 = Beat once, Never play again...
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Here is what this guy is doing. He thinks that XBOX is better and PS2 sucks, and the only game worth buying a PS2 are GTA3 and GTAVC. So to make sure he isn\'t labeled a fanboy he acts like he has a PS2, to prepare for a huge flame.

BTW, there is a GTA5 coming out on PS2 and it will have it exclusive for a year just like they did on the XBOX and PC.

I think it was pointless for them to come out with the GTA series on Xbox. Everyone played them and most beat it. Plus, wasn\'t Rockstar under a contract with sony to make the GTA games only on PS2?

I believe they are under contract to keep it exclusive for a set period of time.  After that they are free to do as they please.  Someone correct me if I\'m wrong about that.

As far as it being pointless.  It\'s debateable.  I\'m sure there still is an audience that don\'t own a PS2 that are willing to pick this up.  Will it be as big on the Xbox?  Probably not.  Will it make a profit? most likely.

Frankly i don\'t care about VC. The graphic suck too horiibly regardless of the platform...even on PC.

And i think I\'m almost same here. I SOLD my PS2 while it is still working and before it becomes absolutely worthless.

Seriously, i really can\'t bear to play another game with crummy blurry texture and shimerries and poor frame rates.

Wanted to buy an XBOX but frankly, the graphics are only a little better....right now, it\'s PC all the way for me.

Still, I think i\'m going to miss FFX-2 and Front Mission 4...oh well, can always play it on a PS2 emulator 2 years down the road or on the PS3. :D
